Chapter 11: Escape with the answer

“How will we retrieve your dad and get the answers that we need with all these cops around?” Asked Zeta. I looked through the crowd of police officers, and saw The Hollowed Man. “Of course, he’d be lost while looking for us, but with all those holes near the lake, it will definitely be hard for him to find us, besides, he’ll least expect us to be there.” I said. Zeta electrically teleported to the roof. “How did you do that?” I asked but he couldn’t hear me. Zeta walked on the roof slowly, studying the cops’ words. I closed my eyes, and imagined being on the roof, but Artemis was gone. “Artemis?!” I yelled in my mind, yet no answer. I opened my eyes, yet I was still on the ground, hiding. Zeta dropped down into the crowd, and he actually looked like a human, he probably did some type of command in his mind to make him look that way. I waited outside while he approached the entrance, hoping this would go right. He walked through the crowd, and at this point, he looked like a chief officer. “Excuse me, but do you know where Devin Lockniv is?” Asked Zeta in the officer costume. “Yes, he’s upstairs, sir.” Said a cop. Zeta walked upstairs finding The Hollowed Man talking to Devin Lockniv, my dad. “Where is Zolan, he has something of mine, and I need to retrieve it before he does damage to it, or it does damage to him or the world.” Said the Hollowed Man. “I don’t know where he went. He went to school in the morning yesterday, and that was the last time saw him.” Said my dad. “Excuse me, scientist, but I need to talk with this man alone.” Said Zeta. The Hollowed Man looked at Zeta in a weird way, but he didn’t know that his creation was right in front of him. The Hollowed Man didn’t want trouble concerning the cops, so he left the room. Zeta then shut the door. “I have your son, Devin.” Said Zeta not revealing himself. “You do? Can I see him, please?” Said my dad. Zeta shifted around the room for a bit, then talked again. “No, but you will be able to see him if you can trust me.” Said Zeta. “Yes, please, I will trust you, I just want to see him!” My dad begged. “Alright then…” Zeta Said as he took off the police uniform and the human-like disguise. My dad’s jaw then dropped. “You are, you are…” My dad said. “I know, I am a cat, but can you come with me? If you really want to see your son, please come with me.” Said Zeta. My dad stared at him, scanning him with his eyes, but let out a tired sigh. “Alright, take me, but how though? How are you gonna get me out of here?” My dad said catching on to the plan. “You get what is going on now? Good. We need to get you out of here, without anyone seeing.” Said Zeta. Zeta looked out the window, then looked at the window. “Oh no, don’t tell me we are going to jump.” My dad said. Almost immediately, Zeta grabbed my dad and jumped out the window with him in his arms. How did he do that? How did he carry a 221-pound man and jumped about 14 feet above the ground and made it 17 feet across the crowd of officers and a road? This cat is crazy! Thankfully, he made it without making any noise to alert anyone. We then took off to the borrow. The Hollowed Man entered the room that my dad was in, but my dad was gone. “Guards!!! Search the area! He's gone!!! That’s it, Zolan! I will find you all, and kill you all myself!!!”.
